Nissan's shims come with anti-squeal goop so you don't need to buy it seperately.

Hey, does anyone have any part numbers for front/rear pads, and the shim kit?

My brakes have come down to nothing (no vibration in brake pedal), so I assume all that needs to be changed is the pads? I plan to just order the pads from the website www.nissanparts.cc and then have a local mechanic install them for me (at hopefully, a fraction of the dealer cost). My I30 is a 97 by the way...would the new pads and a new shim kit be all that I need? THANKS!
